Risking bileteral relationships and welfare ( economical
boycotts?!! ) of the society because of A drug trafficker. Not very
wise. A waste of time, money and jail space. Similarly, deporting
him might just be a waste of time, money and fuel for
transportation.
Furthermore, dragging the issue might result in the extension of
the initial effects of the drug itself. Foolish behavior indeed,
what are politicians thinking ? "Leadership for the sake of
leadership" or "Leadership to guide the masses(mankind) to greater
satisfaction and achievement" ?
In retrospect, if the issue does get to international court and
frees the condemned person, what ensues ? Respect for the
Australian counterparts -showing competence in saving the life of a
drug trafficer- that slowly and menancingly subsides to allow for
the man to carry on making mistakes ? or a greater image to bolster
their control over the country that is, as previous comments have
shown, infused with unapprehended drug abusers ?
The influx of attention given to this man is a sign of the lack of
aspiration towards human excellence. Correct me if i'm wrong but
the great leaders of macrological perception on world/national
issues seem nowhere to be found. Perhaps i am just not receptive to
the greater issues at hand.
On the contrary, this man is young (older than I) and has hope of
changing to contribute to society. The pharmeceutical faculty
perhaps ? In any case, I believe whether or not this man faces
capital punishment, it should be enforced by the jurisdiction
within geographical confinements(Singapore). His crime happens to
encompass rudiments of a distinctive national threat. Distinctive
because drug trafficking is the act of introducing and smuggling
drugs into the country.
So Australia, dont kay poh la... not worth the trouble.. let us
handle the fate of this guy -that threatens our national stability-
in the most brutal, cruel and uncomprimising way. and then 'gudday
mate!'
